    Bump!


    BBC: 'Monster' fossil find in Arctic

    The discovery of a gigantic pliosaur, nicknamed The Monster, was one of the most remarkable discoveries of the expedition.

    Its skeleton has dinner-plate-sized neck vertebrae, and the lower jaw has teeth as big as bananas.

    Perhaps this thread should be renamed "Interesting Dead Dinosaur of the day"

    Well...... there is no particular reason that this thread should stay on topic any more than others do. And even if its topic wanders, its fundamental theme and vague inscrutable purpose remain constant, well maybe.



    But in keeping with your suggestion... I nominate Barney:



    Oh but wait.... he's not interesting. And unfortunately he's not dead.

    Last night's SouthPark cleared the whole evolution thing up for me. Humans are the result of 5 mutant monkeys having anal sex with a frog-squirrel. Oh, and God is a Flying Spaghetti Monster. What did impress me is that they had Richard Dawkins in the episode, or rather a representation of Richard Dawkins. His "Selfish Gene" helped me get a better handle on the whole evolution concept.

    Creationist museum challenges evolution


    BBC: Nuts and Berries

    "On a rocky ledge, there is a pair of small theropods - young T. rexes we're told. And near to them ('hold onto your hat,' says Ken, anticipating our disbelief) there are two human children playing by a stream.

    Most geologists would say humans and dinosaurs were separated by more than 60 million years.

    And those dinosaurs have very sharp teeth!

    'So do bears', says Ken. 'But they eat nuts and berries! Remember, before the sin of Adam, the world was perfect. All creatures were vegetarian.' One of the dinosaurs lets out a rather contradictory roar."

    Heh, Ken is an interesting fellow. Like a lot of Australians, I've met him on several occasions. He's an extreme personality, very forceful and I never warmed to his tendency to imply that you'd have to be an idiot not to agree with his point of view. (Rather like some of the reactions you get in a discussion about whether a plane can take off from a conveyor belt running backwards... )
